Very true.  I've never thought about this as my presentations are for
presentation only etc.  However, it would definitely be nice to have a
more general solution.

The alist structure doesn't allow for embedded lisp code, as far as I
can tell.  It would obviously be easier if this structure could be

The only suggestion I can come up with would be to modify this
